Premium Tips

Two tips stand out for a 12.30pm opener that pits Everton’s home solidity against a Chelsea attack that keeps outscoring its own defence.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Thierno Barry to score anytime9/4 (BoyleSports)Barry has quietly become Everton’s main threat, scoring three times in six league games and leading the line in every one. Chelsea have not kept a single clean sheet this season and have shipped 13 goals, seven of them on the road, so chances should come. Everton have scored in five of their six games and the Frenchman is the obvious man to take them. At 9/4 for a striker in this sort of form, that looks a fair price.
Draw and both teams to score7/2 (BoyleSports)Everton have drawn four of their six games and sit level on points with Chelsea, so a share of the spoils is far from unlikely. The visitors have found the net in five of their six outings but have failed to keep an opponent out, while Everton have scored in five. Three of Everton’s four draws have seen both teams score, underlining the pattern. Both sides finding the net in a tight game is well backed by the numbers, and 7/2 for the score draw with goals at either end offers plenty of appeal.

How Chelsea go into the game

Chelsea are sixth on 10 points, but their defence has been the problem, with 13 goals conceded and no clean sheet all season. They thrashed Bournemouth 5-1 at home last time out, though on the road they have lost two of their three games.
